“ Great food and the service is even better. Tri tips are slightly less tenderized but they are still great. And the side of fries is quite large, and tastes fantastic as well. ”
“ Party of 5 on a Sunday, early evening. We were able to get a seat. Although, around 7pm, things picked up quick. I ordered chicken strips with a half and half basket of fries (unseasoned) and onion rings. It's been awhile since I've been here and the chicken strips have definitely come down in size. That was disappointing because the smaller the strip, the less meat and the less meat means the chicken strip is hard and dry. Overall, everything was hot and fresh, but I'll probably think twice about ordering the chicken strips again. ”
“ The Dog House Grill is a huge, loud sports bar-restaurant with tons of seating and lots of TV screens showing local sports. Its a bit loud inside, and the environment may have spooked my 4yo son a bit. The food is meat-centric and legit. The tri-tip sandwich and pulled pork sandwich were both excellent, especially with their dipping sauces. The meats are juicy and you get lots of it. For sharing, I recommend the basket of fries, which easily feeds 2-3. The kid's cheeseburger was decent, but I prefer the cheese to be melted more. Surprisingly busy for weekday afternoon, but then again it was Thanksgiving week. You order at the door, find your seat, and they'll bring you your food. Maybe not the best place for young kids given the noise and crowds, but good food overall. ”
“ I went to Dog House for the first time with my husband and kids. We ordered the tri tip sandwich, pulled pork sandwich, kids hot dog, kids grilled cheese and a basket of fries. It's all very reasonably priced and it's a ton of food! I enjoyed all the food and the environment is very lively and a perfect distraction for my young kids. The food came quick as well! They have two options for dining in-order at the counter, seat yourself and pick up for when it's ready or full service. We chose the self seating option and it was great! I can see how it might get hard to grab a seat during peak times. We were there at 5 on a Tuesday so no issues! ”
“ Fresno version of Firestone from San Luis Obispo. Tri tip sandwich is legendary and a must try if it's your first time. Ribs and Fries are right up there as well. All of the food is great so you can't go wrong. There is usually a line so you order from the cashier at the front then you stand around trying to find a table. It's not terrible but the busier it is the longer it takes. The pros send someone immediately to find a table even before you order. Parking is always tough and the ambiance is loud and busy. Facilities are clean and staff is friendly and efficient. They have no time for chit chat, this is a fine tuned BBQ producing, meal serving machine that cycles you thru. With everybody standing around waiting for a table you do feel pressure to get after it. I am a huge Firestone fan so I don't mind it. The patio is more relaxed and if you get there when they open it is a little more chill. Their pricing is good as well. Good value for liberal portions and high food quality. ”
“ Just ate at the Dog House Grill in Fresno and it's BOMB! It's very busy there as it's kind of a sports bar environment and it's also located right across the street from Fresno College. The food is amazing, though! I ordered The Pig sandwich and the pulled pork was perfectly cooked and tender. The barbecue sauce was so flavorful, too. The price is pretty affordable and you also get A LOT. Try it out if you're in Fresno! ”
“ Good food and drinks. I'm not a fan of the tri tip . But the hot was good. It can be packed . But they get you on out fast. Great for lunch time breaks. I like all the add on options too. I got a side of feta cheese that was good. ”
“ Second time at Dog House. This place is as good as it gets. Tri Tip sandwich was so good o ordered a second. The salad I split with my wife was so delicious. Great atmosphere especially on game day, even the coaches were here. Thanks Coach Smith for the recommendation and Thanks Doghouse for a great meal and service ”
“ Great for the price! My boyfriend and I got the Tri Tip Steak Sandwich, The Craiger Special, and fries. The Steak Sandwich is almost $15, but the Craiger was well worth it at around $7. Fries are tasty, and for $3-$4, you get a huge portion! Inside was super dark but had a lot of tvs to bring in lighting. The noise level in Dog House is definitely HIGH, so if that's not your thing I would suggest a to-go order. Also, good luck with parking! Their parking lot is small, always crowded, and the spots across the street don't allow you to park there. Parking itself is the reason I don't come back often. ”
“ Wow! This place was crazy busy! I got a table in the bar area and only had to wait a few minutes for service. I got the tri-tip sandwich, I heard it was great. The food was decent. The meat was tender and seasoned well, but was on the dry side. It could have used a little more sauce. The fries were a delicious golden brown. Good service, good food. ”
